Paul Thomas Anderson

You know, the violent part of him would come out.

And it was like, and I guess I saw, the story that I remember, there was a sketch called The Denise Show, where he's talking to his ex-girlfriend, Denise, who's played by Shannon Daugherty.

And it's a funny enough premise.

And he keeps trying to woo her back.

But there's a moment when he starts screaming.

I think his dad calls up and is on the speakerphone, and he starts screaming at his father.

And there was a moment where Sandler screamed.

He's so invested in it that the whites of his eyes turned black.

There was a level of anger and commitment to this performance.

I said...

That is something else, that he's not just screaming and being like... He potentially is completely psychotic underneath all of this and I loved it.

That's great, I love that.

Yeah, and it was... You know, he has a great physical way about him and I...

Yeah, loved working with Adam.

I don't know.

I want to be careful what I say here.

Because I only in the past couple weeks have become a little bit preoccupied with what seems to be a real unfortunate turn of events, which is...

80-minute stories being turned into, like, nine-part, you know, things that it just seems to be the kind of the call of the day.

Like, this is what we're doing.

When, in fact, you know, it's like, piss off.
